FUND SUMMARY

Claymore Equal Weight Banc & Lifeco ETF (the "Fund") (TSX:CEW), has been created to provide investors with a diversified equal weighted investment in a portfolio of Canadian banks and life insurance companies. CEW invests, on an equally weighted basis, in common shares of the largest Canadian banks and Canadian life insurance companies. Inclusion in the CEW Portfolio is based on the following criteria:

  • the minimum market capitalization to be included in the CEW Portfolio is $5 billion for banks and $1.5 billion for life insurance companies; and
  • the companies must be Canadian banking or Canadian life insurance companies.

 

The Portfolio will be rebalanced (i) semi-annually, to adjust for changes in the market value of investments; and (ii) to reflect the impact of a merger, acquisition or other significant corporate action or event of or affecting one or more of the Canadian banks or life insurance companies in the CEW Portfolio.

P/E Ratio is a harmonic weighted average and is equal to a security’s market capitalization divided by its after-tax earnings over the most recent 12-month period.

P/B Ratio is a harmonic weighted average and is equal to a security’s market capitalization divided by its book value.

Alpha is a statistical measurement that depicts the performance difference between a fund's return and an underlying performance benchmark, given a fund’s level of volatility, measured by beta. The benchmark will always reflect an alpha of 0.00%. A positive alpha indicates a fund has performed better than its beta would predict in the stated period. Data displayed is for the previous 3 year period.

Beta is the measure of a fund's sensitivity to the Index. By definition, the beta of the Index is 1.00. Any fund with a higher beta is more volatile than the Index. Likewise, any portfolio with a lower beta will be less volatile than the index in the stated period. Data displayed is for the previous 3 year period.

Standard deviation is a statistical measurement that depicts how widely returns vary over a given period of time. The measurement is generally used to understand the range of returns that are most likely for a given portfolio. Generally, a higher standard deviation indicates a more risky portfolio. This is computed by using the trailing monthly total returns for the appropriate time period. Monthly standard deviations are then annualized. Data displayed is for the previous 3 year time period.

Average Market Capitalization is the geometric mean of the market capitalizations for all the securities in a fund’s portfolio.
